We are looking for an internationally renowned and committed individual in applied mathematics with a strong theoretical background who is able to link different fields of mathematics in research and teaching. The applicant's research should ideally combine different mathematical disciplines. Connections to the main focuses of research in the Institute for Analysis and Numerics are essential. Intra- and interdisciplinary cooperations and collaboration with existing and planned research centres are expected, as well as participation in our teaching programs, including Bachelor- and Master courses in Analysis and in Numerics and the respective theses. Prerequisite for the application are academic achievements made as a Juniorprofessor (assistant professor), in a Habilitation (postdoctoral qualification), as a member of the academic staff ) of a university or non-university research institute, or in a research position in business, industry, administration or other relevant fields in Germany or abroad. Applications by early-stage researchers are particularly welcome. The University of Munster is an equal opportunity employer and is committed to increasing the proportion of senior women academics. Consequently, we actively encourage applications by women. Female candidates with equivalent qualifications and academic achievements will be preferentially considered within the framework of the legal possibilities. We also welcome applications from candidates with severe disabilities. Disabled candidates with equivalent qualifications will be preferentially considered. Applications, including degree certificates, a CV, a list of publications, a research plan, a statement of research and teaching experience should be submitted electronically in a single PDF file by 31 March 2018 to mathdek@wwu.de. ------ Subject: Contents, Kinetic & Related Models 11:2 From: zhoucuixin Date: Mon, 5 Feb 2018 10:07:51 +0800 (CST) Kinetic & Related Models (KRM) 2018, Volume 11, Issue 2 http://aimsciences.org/journal/1937-5093/2018/11/2 1.
